Aaah! All of your spirits are so
strong! I can feel it through the keys of the message board. Thanks Dad for the
letter and thanks Grandma! Congrats on the 50 years! I will for sure miss
being the MC at the Christmas Party. Thanks for creating that position for me,
it really took the sting off the realization I had that I had swindled away my
time and not procured any talents!!
So this is the last week with the
tripanionship, the native is going home which means we are screwed. Between my
comp and I, we have so little understanding of Chinese and since we are in like
a mixing pot of Asians, we hear a ton of accents from all over so unless you
are way solid you can’t really understand people. But I know that language isn’t
a barrier for the Lord! We have a baptism this Saturday; it is the first one
for the branch in 2 years! I hope it starts a revival ( Bently.....) with the
members. I have a testimony that lessons with members are how we will help
people understand. I am a freaking hun xie ar ( half blood, that’s what they
call me) from Utah, all the members are converts from Taiwan or China, they are
so amazing in lesson when they bear testimony that they didn’t know everything
before they were baptized, but they had faith that they would learn and that
God would help them. I love the branch. I love you guys!! I freakin love this
scripture, I share it as much as I can.
Mormon 7:7 and he hath brought to
pass the redemption of the world, whereby he that is found guiltless before him
at the judgment day hath it given unto him to dwell in the presence of God in
his Kingdom, to sing ceaseless praises with the choirs above.........in a state
of happiness which hath no end
I can’t believe I get to give people
this, every single day.
Thanks you all for the words of encouragement,
it means the world. I know the world won’t give us more until he is satisfied
with what we have done with what he has already given us! We have a baptism
this Saturday with Betal. He is so golden, straight out of the heart of China
and he is loving having a Heavenly Father, he met the branch pretty much for
the first time this Sunday, and when he got up to say a little about him he
said something like, " if I had any question I would pray, if I felt bad I
would pray, if I realized I had been blessed I would pray, pray pray pray and
every time I felt God answer me." He is the best; I will send a pic of him
next time.
Samson and Tiffany also came to
Church, they are also straight out of China, they are awesome, we just need to
meet with them more often and I know we can help them understand what this church
really is, it’s THE church!!!
Thank you mom so much for the study
stuff, I am going to use the picture Book of Mormon to teach a little girl
named I'Po.
Have fun in Mexicococ, or South America,
or both!!! Drink lots of jaritos.
Be Safe and I love you all
Elder Burr
